Martin sees her primary care role
as that of rst contact for the patient
when a medical illness, issue or con-
cern arises. “But I don’t want to just
treat the symptom. I want to help es-
tablish a care plan that incorporates
prevention and wellness,” she says.
Although Yocum will be seeing
patients periodically at the Walk-In
Clinic, her primary role will be to
assist neurologist Rodrigo Lim, MD,
with his neurology patients in his
practice at the RMC and to assist
with trauma patients in the emer-
gency department at GRH.
